When you drive a BMW, Cadillac, Mercedes-Benz, or any other type of luxury model, you have to be diligent about service. While this isn’t an exhaustive list, here are three luxury car maintenance tasks that can’t be overlooked:
Oil Changes
Designed and built by experts, the engine under the hood of your luxury auto is a work of art. And as such, you need to treat it properly. This means that the oil has to be changed regularly.
Check your owner’s manual for precise numbers, but the general recommendation is between 5,000 and 10,000 miles. Regardless of the mileage, get your motor oil changed two times per year. Also, be sure you’re using the right type of oil for your vehicle.
Tire Rotations
If you’ve had to buy tires for your car recently, you know that they aren’t cheap. Therefore you need to do things to make sure they last for as long as possible.
Rotating your tires is essential, as this helps them wear down more evenly. In addition, well-rotated tires will give you the best performance out on the road. Like oil changes, this service task should be done twice per year.
Tune-Ups
In order to ensure that your vehicle is operating perfectly, it should be brought in for a tune-up on a regular basis. While you can get a tune-up every year, every other year – or every 25,000 miles – is a good timeframe to consider.
With a tune-up, all of the belts, hoses, spark plugs, and other essentials will get a good inspection and allow technicians to make any necessary repairs or replacements. To ensure your car is healthy and performing as it should, make an appointment with the service center at Scott Lot near Emmaus.
